Terra Vallona Merlot Cabernet Comte Tolosan

Producer

Les Marmandais was founded in 2003, following the merging of two cooperative wineries of the appellation: the Cave de Beaupuy (founded in 1957) on the right bank of the River Garonne, and the Cave de Cocumont (1956) on the left bank. Vines have been playing a major economic role in the region since the Gallo-Roman era. During the Middle-Ages, the Bordeaux wine merchants used wines from the Marmandais region to meet export needs.

The region expanded over the 18th and 19th centuries, but gained real traction in the 20th century, with improvement and acknowledgement of the distinctive terroir of Côtes du Marmandais and Comte Tolosan. In 1990, Côtes du Marmandais gained Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée status. The vineyards cover both banks of the river: the right bank, ‘Terre de Guyenne’ and the left bank, ‘Terre de Gascogne’, each with its distinctive and individual flair. As proud ambassadors of the ‘Made in Sud-Ouest’ way of life, Les Marmandais aims to express the warmth of their culture with fruit-driven wines, which reflect this historical terroir.
